¹⁵ So go after them with your strong wind, and let them be full of fear because of your storm.

¹⁷ For I would be crushed by his storm, my wounds would be increased without cause.

⁹ Before they are conscious of it, let them be cut down like thorns; let a strong wind take them away like waste growth.

¹⁸ You have not come to a mountain which may be touched, and is burning with fire, and to a black cloud, and a dark smoke, and a violent wind,

²⁷ And the rain came down and there was a rush of waters and the winds were driving against that house; and it came down and great was its fall.

¹¹ Say to those who put whitewash on it, There will be an overflowing shower; and you, O ice-drops, will come raining down; and it will be broken in two by the storm-wind.

¹² And when the wall has come down, will they not say to you, Where is the whitewash which you put on it?

¹³ For this reason, the Lord has said: I will have it broken in two by a storm-wind in my passion; and there will be an overflowing shower in my wrath, and you, O ice-drops, will come raining angrily down.

¹⁴ So I will let the wall, which you were covering with whitewash, be broken down; I will have it levelled to the earth so that its base is uncovered: it will come down, and destruction will come on you with it; and it will be clear to you that I am the Lord.

³⁰ And the Lord will send out the sound of his great voice, and they will see his arm stretched out, with the heat of his wrath, and the flame of a burning fire; with a cloud-burst, and storm, and a rain of ice.

¹⁷ And I will make right decision the measuring-line, and righteousness the weight: and the ice-storm will take away the safe place of false words, and the secret place will be covered by the flowing waters.

³ Our God will come, and will not keep quiet; with fire burning before him, and storm-winds round him.

⁶ On the evil-doer he will send down fire and flames, and a burning wind; with these will their cup be full.

²⁰ Fears overtake him like rushing waters; in the night the storm-wind takes him away.

²¹ The east wind takes him up and he is gone; he is forced violently out of his place.

²² God sends his arrows against him without mercy; he goes in flight before his hand.

²³ Men make signs of joy because of him, driving him from his place with sounds of hissing.
